Somerset NHS Foundation Trust Careers and Employment

Overall good company to work for, pay could be better. Sometime feels as if you are expected to work above your pay grade. Also not always much in the way of progression.

Undervalued and underpaid

Everyone loves the NHS but something needs to change if they want to retain a work force. There are too many managers who have all done the same training. People work until they burnout and are treated like just a replaceable number.People on lower grades are expected to work at a higher level without reevaluation.

Not a good trust to work for.

I wouldn't work for this trust again if I could help it. I worked in a drs surgery, run by the trust.Management rude and sarcastic. No money given for important things needed. Very old-fashioned. Treated badly by other 'higher up' members of staff. Pay is ok for around here but could be better for the job as it's extremely stressful and pressurised. Expected to do any overtime asked of you at the drop of the hat.

Incredibly stressful with no support from management

The actual job was varied and interesting but very short staffed and no help or support from management. They do not and will not help with people who are not doing their job properly, and you suffer because of this. Not good for your mental or physical health and well-being.
